You know who our generation's most well-built villain is? It's Sonu Sood. In fact, he's not one of the best built but the only well-built villain right now in Bollywood.
Sonu has played the mafia boss for a long time now and what goes hand-in-hand with his acting skills are his supervillain looks. Though he has a great upper body, his core stands out.
His abs are thick, well separated and blocky. It's not your usual washboard weak 'core'. His midsection boasts of years of dedicated core training.
Now, this is what you need to pay attention to if you want a mid-section like him.

There's NO going around the fact that abs are a giving of planned eating. Eat whatever and then do 1000 crunches and you won't get to see jack, but a fluffy core instead.
Plan your eating. Calculate your daily caloric intake. Know how much of what particular macro nutrients you would need. Here, read this article (https://www.mensxp.com/health/body-building/34002-here-rsquo-s-the-macro-breakdown-of-the-most-important-bodybuilding-foods.html) and know how to set your diet.
Exercising:
Compound Movements

To carve out an excellent core, first you need to understand how your core gets engaged while working out. The most core engagement comes usually from big compound movements like the deadlift and the squat.
Pull-ups are another exercise that engages the core indirectly. So, in short, you need to pay attention to giving due time to all the big lifts and progressively overload on them.
Isolating The Core:
Isolating the core is the MOST misunderstood. Since most coaches don't understand core training, the clients don't do any better either.
First, stop doing these while isolating the core:
1) 1000 reps of crunches with cow-dung form.
2) If you have back issues, especially lower back, stop killing yourself doing crunches and sit-ups.
3) Thinking that isolating the core will shed belly fat.
4) Spending an entire gym session on working your abs.
Start doing these instead:
1) Limit your reps and control the tempo of all the reps you do. Feel the abs. Do 50 but make them feel it. Abs are just like any other muscle group and the principal of consistent tension applies here as well.
2) Pick the top 3 ab exercises that you feel the most and have perfect form on. Don't be a mad cow doing 10 different exercises and performing poorly on each one of them.

Now, again, these are NOT the best. There's NO such thing as the best exercise. These are my top picks:
1) 'Ab' wheel roll outs
2) Leg raises on a bench
3) L-Sit pull ups
4) Cable wood choppers
5) Classic crunches

Sreesanth knows what everyone wants, and he brilliantly delivers. What a guy!
Just a couple of weeks ago, we all found out together how much of a beast Sreesanth had transformed into. After a series of unfortunate incidents, he was not the one to fade into oblivion completely, instead he worked on his incredible transformation and just look at him now!
Keep working hard and keep at it..BE THE BEST YOU..

He's been documenting all of his hard work on his Instagram account and has been sharing multiple videos of him working out, and proving the title of 'beast' is very well deserved.

Among all the workout videos and gym selfies, yesterday he decided to take it up a notch and share a more dramatic and intense video showing what he loves doing the most. (It's working out, but you already got that, right?)

Well, Harbhajan Singh should stay away from him now, unless he wants to get his ass whooped.
